Hello guys and girls! My name is Sherri and I'm 33 years old. I live in va and I would love to have some friends on here that could motivate me and hold me accountable. Lol. I joined a local gym 2 months ago, and I have JUST started to workout. I need some tips on how to tone my stomach since I've lost 80 pounds and now I have that nasty saggy skin :( I'm new to all this. I don't know anything about working out. Some patient friends would be wonderful to have in my corner. And of course, I will support you as well! Thank you for taking the time to read this! :)

    Whilst I've been on MFP for a while I've only just started to use the community because I'm now in a bit of a rut so more than happy to provide so mutual support. Based way over the pond in England.

    Hey and welcome!

    I lost 25 kilos and got to 10% body fat with glimpses of 6 pack abs 2 years ago after using myfitnesspal for 6 months straight and have a gym routine, but since then I've gained back close to 20 kilos from binge eating...

    I've got this arthritis gout issue, it swells up my left toe so bad I can barely walk everytime I'm overweight so I really need to get back in shape before it does any permanent damage.

    Hoping I can add a few friends to keep me motivated and this time get down to 5% BF for a solid 6 pack!!!
